Angela - Sorry you are sore. I know what you mean about not much space. The last time Andrew and I had play time he was umm.. not complaining that he couldn't really fit. lol I know, tmi but I can definately relate.

YAY for hitting week 15... almost halfway there! I am doing well, thanks for asking. Belly is huge and sleeping is not tha comfy but I am ok. Still loving every moment I get to feel them move.
Hazel - I am hoping for normal sized babies. lol I don't think they will have much choice being that there are wo in there. I am sure the growth will slow down because of the restriction, not just space but fighting for nutrients and such. I just hope they will make it far along enough to be ok. Don't worry about labor. It does hurt, of course, but if you can handle a contraction, you can handle delivery. In my opinion, delivery was a breeze in comparision to the pain of the contrations. Then once you meet Zorba you will feel like you can run a marathon. lol The adrenaline you get after is amazing. I remember telling everyone right after Alex (doctor still in the room after delivery) I feel like I could do cart wheels! Thanks for being so empathetic about the neighbors. I really expected a difference here since the saying in the south is how great the "Southern Hospitality" is. I haven't really witnessed this.
As far as the shower or cash pool goes... I think we need to know what everyone else thinks so we can gather a list of those who want to participate. Who is willing to give their real names and addresses in order to do it? How would it work as far as the currency goes? I think we need to all agree on an amount and send everyone that amount (or equivilant to for like you and Gi). Do we all get a registry of at least a few items just for us to choose from and simply buy that item and mail it? Or just make a list and post it for those who aren't doing a registry? I need input! lol Worst case scenerio, I will be PMing people and asking ideas of what they need. That way if someone does or doesn't want to, they can tell me privately. At least I will have made an effort.

Feel free to PM me if you want to let me know your info so I can send you a little something for Zorba!
Gi - Ahh... it's coming back to me now. Thanks for repeating yourself for me.

I find that my memory really does suck lately. lol That is a pretty name! Alex is very excited about the adoption, even meeting the judge! She has been calling herself a Ford for quite a while, but of course she can't exactly have that fly at school where she has to write her real last name. So this next school year and from there on after, she can use Ford and she is over the moon about it. As far as your kicks, they normall are very low. Even now, most of the kicks I feel are down low where my pubic bone is. I am sure they are still breech because I don't think they are punches. Sometimes I will push down there and I will feel the kicks slide across my fingers or get a knock type of a kick. I am sure what you are feeling is your little Kayla!
Sara - I have a feeling I will better answer your question on Friday. lol I assume they will start seeing me every 2 weeks from now on, but so far I have not been told so. I have only been to my ob twice believe it or not!! He wanted to see me every 5-6 weeks so Friday will be the 3rd time I have seen him. I assume the doctor doing my u/s's is a perinatologist, but I could be wrong... he could just be the HR OB at the hospital. I was thinking earlier today how I want to ask once and for all what his job title is. I see him every 6 weeks till birth. Seems you are getting a lot of attention and I wish I was too. If my ob tells me Friday to come in in 5 weeks I am going to smack him. I know that since this isn't my first baby and since they twins that my risk of dialating early is inevitable, not to mention they I would think they need to keep a close eye on the previa. Even with Alex I was 2 cm dialated early, (they ended up inducing me just to control the birth). So I know I need those once every two weeks visits. Not sure if they will send me to the other doctor (HR OB or perinatologist?) more often for more then just the u/s's or not. I am completely clueless, but plan on asking a lot of questions this week! As far as the single cord, I am sure it is of no fault of your own! Sometimes these things just happen, just like bleeding and previas. She will be fine, your doctors are staying on top of it and making sure she and he will both be prefect.
Katie - Glad everything is looking awesome with baby Ryan. I am sure the wait till the next u/s will be torture though. At least you know that everything is perfect and there is nothing to worry about. I don't miss doing the glucose test. I have tried all three types (or the ones I know of). I will list them in order of dislike to like. If you have a choice in what kind you drink, maybe this will help. lol The clear is absolutely the worst in my opinion, my guess is that they mixed this one with a Sprite or 7-Up type soda and I am not a big fan of clear sodas. This one took me the whole 15 minutes to get down. If you are, you might like it. 2nd worst, the Coke type colored one. This wasn't tha bad but definaltey was no fun to chug down in less then 15, but I did it. The last one, the orange color. This one tasted just like orange Fanta. lol I was able to drink this one like a regular soda with no suffering other than a strange after taste. I hope I get a choice when I go for my test! So are you serious... you haven't gained any weight? I bet you are going to lose that 30 pounds of cycle weight after she is born. lol So how are you feeling? Any answers on your headaches?
AFM - Had a few people over Sunday. Three girls from my old neighborhood (one that I just started to get to know) and their men. It was pretty awesome. It was just what I needed to feel human again and feel like I have friends. They all want to secretly plan a back up plan for the shower just in case my neighbor doesn't come through. I definately felt the love. lol We made it simple, just had a simple BBQ, chatted and then watched some sexy on tv. lol That's what we call watching True Blood on HBO.

There is talks about doing it once a week too so that would be nice. I never get to hang out or go anywhere so that would be nice. I hate feeling like a hermit.
On a sad note... I just found out that my grandad is dying. After my mom died in 1998 the family went to shit basically. I started to be judged by most of my family and that judgement was that they didn't like me. So they kept from me for the last 5 years that my grandad was sick and in and out of the hospital. This time he has been in for a month and just today I get the call saying he won't last the day. Thankfully my cousin's husband made the effort to contact me or else who knows if I would have even been told after he dies what happened. I didn't hold anything in though... I vented because I feel that their hate for me has robbed me of a chance to say goodbye. If I would have known sooner, I could have had a chance to talk to him while he was still coherent. However, he is in and out of consciousness and not really aware of what's going on. I asked him to try and get the message that I love him anyway. He doesn't even know if my grandad has been told I am having twins. I would think that he would have loved to know since my mother (his daughter) was a twin. He and my grandmother had my mom and a boy named Kenny (Kenneth) however Kenny didn't make it past 24 hours. So now I am having boy/girl twins and no one bothered to tell him? Not to mention I JUST spoke to my one cousin within a week because she is the one who confirmed the spelling of my grandma's name (his wife who passed). I know the family knows I am pg with twins, my one cousin still keeps in touch with me spite what the family says about me, she is my mother's sister's daughter and they live right next door to my grandad. Not to mention I know they look at my Facebook and such... that is how they decided to tell me by the way. I got the FB message saying it wouldn't last the day and asking to call. It's hard to explain what I am feeling besides such unexplained anger for them to be so selfish. All I can hope for is that they do tell him how I feel and that he happens to be coherent enough to hear it. I know that I have to get over the anger, it's not good to feel this way... but I know it's also part of the stages of grieving so I will let it pass and forget about them. It's just sad that this is how it had to be. I still don't know what I did to deserve such hate... I was only 19 when my mom died of cancer.
